5.0 out of 5 stars it's a big blow dryer
Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2022

I live in California, the state that thinks it's a European country. Energy prices are high everywhere, but they're ridiculous here, we pay 30-50¢ per khw, and natty gas this year makes that look like a deal. Heating my whole house is not happening this year. I refuse!
So we have a little oil filled radiator. These take about an hour to warm a room and are heavy and take up valuable space in a closet for half of the year.
My requirements were: Energy efficient, light weight, small.
Basically this thing works like a blow dryer. It heats up it's ceramic plates and blows air across it. That means it gets hot instantly, unlike an oil filled radiator which has to heat the oil first. It also is cool to the touch when you shut it down.
My office is in a huge room in our house, I'd need two or three radiators to heat it and it wouldn't get hot until noon. What this is good for is heating up your immediate area and if you happen to be in a bedroom or something, this would probably warm that space quite well.
Pros:
This thing is light weight, I think they say 4lbs. It's easy to move around.
It's small. It will easily store away in a closet or a shelf and still leave plenty of room for other stuff.
It gets hot fast. Within seconds.
It has 2 heat settings, 900 and 1500. At a few feet away, 900 is great.
The fan is quiet! Louder than my oil filled radiator (which is virtually silent) Quieter than my air purifier on medium.
Cons:
Smells like an environmental hazard when first turned on. I'm optimistic this will go away in short order.
The fan has 1 speed, that speed is low. If you want to blow hot air all around a big room, vornado has some better options.
It could have a 500 or 600 watt setting for truly economical running. 900 watts for 6 hours per day is $60 a month for California energy prices. 500 watts is $32.88. Just a few short years ago, it would have cost a mere $18 per month to run it at 900w... but that's life! Heating my house with natty gas as minimally as possible would run about $232 a month. So it's still a deal.
There were cheaper options and better looking options, but this hit the sweet spot for size, features, and Lasko is a brand that is if anything these days, fairly reliable. I hear their customer service is poor but they probably just import these things from China and slap a label on it. Everything I've gotten from them seems to work.

I bought this for my RV and it sure kept it warm in there. Love the choice of oscillating or not, and two speeds of fan. It's slim and small, but does the job!

I have a big home and don't need to heat every room at the same time. This portable heater is perfect for single rooms. It's very warm and has a temp monitor so you don't get too hot. It does shut itself off when it reaches the temp you set it to.

5.0 out of 5 stars Room heater.
Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2024

This heater was amazing. I got it for my bedroom. I was always colder than my husband was. I could not believe that it would heat the room and our bathroom adjacent to it. I couldn't stand waking up cold. This heater remedied all that. It worked so well, I had to put in on low heat before I went asleep. It helps a lot with my hormones, one minute I am cold, later I have a hot flash. The best thing was the oscillating feature. I can put it in our den now in case I wake up early and the den feels cold and it still warms up the room. This is an open area. It is one of the best small heaters I have ever bought especially for the price.

I use this in my living room in the winter when I need a little more heat while watching television. It is quiet and works efficiently to warm the room quickly. I also love the fact that it oscillates, I highly recommend it.
